Introduction: The ENETS network of accredited NET Centres of Excellence (CoE) across Europe was established to standardise and improve NET management.
Aim(s): To compare diagnostic and patient management pathways for lung NET in ENETS CoE with non-accredited UK centres (non-CoE).
Materials and methods: Between Oct 2016–May 2017 clinicians at 27 UK centres were interviewed about current patient management. Respondents were from all 10 CoE (4 oncologists, 6 other specialists) and 17 non-CoE (15 oncologists, 2 other specialists). Results are presented as CoE vs non-CoE respondents.
